Description

The subject matter of the analyses in this work ranges from works by Spanish masters such as Miguel de Cervantes and Federico Garca Lorca, to the nineteenth-century Brazilian author Alusio Azevedo, and the twenty-first-century Mexican director Alejandro Gonzlez Irritu. In addition to treatments of specific works, there are general theoretical overviews by such well-known scholars as Joseph Carroll and David Barash, together with a concluding study detailing the current understanding of Darwin by both Anglo and Hispanic college students in the United States. Overall, this collection of essays shows how the insights of Darwins theories can serve to illuminate Hispanic culture and cultural production in new and even groundbreaking ways.
